Hole Guide

Major championships have, and will start with longer holes than the 380-yard first hole at Pebble Beach, but the sloped fairway will test players to hit the fairway on the first blow. Most will opt for a long-iron or hybrid off the tee because a fairway position is paramount to gain a clear view of what is an extremely narrow green.
